Alright, you made it here. The tough part is done.
|
|
|
|
After entering the Home Assistant device's address in your browser's address bar, the preparation screen is shown. Depending on your hardware, preparation may take a while.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
To show the logs, select the blue pulsing circle.
|
|

|
|
|
|
With Home Assistant installed, it's time to set up the basics.
|
|
|
|
In this step, you will create the owner account of Home Assistant. This account is an administrator account. It will always be able to change everything.
|
|
|
|
1. Enter a name, username, and password. Select **Create account**.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
1. Enter a name for your home and define the location specific settings and the language of the user interface.
|
|
* To automatically populate these settings, select **Detect**.
|
|
* If you'd rather not send your location, you can set these values manually.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
1. Select which information you are willing to share.
|
|
* Sharing is disabled by default. However, we would like to encourage you to share some of this data.
|
|
* This information helps us to find out which platforms we need to support and where to focus our efforts.
|
|
* The data is anonymized and aggregated. To see the charts we generate out of this data, take a look at our [analytics page](https://analytics.home-assistant.io/).
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
1. Once you are done, select **Next**.
|
|
* Home Assistant will then show any {% term devices %} it has discovered on your network.
|
|
* Don't be alarmed if you see fewer items than shown below; you can always manually add devices later.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
1. Finally, select **Finish**.
|
|
* Now you're brought to the Home Assistant web interface. This screen will show all of your devices.
